Took my 4th Great Grandmother's name on my Dad's Side to the temple!

Ya'ta'hey!
We got to go to the temple today and I took My 4th great Grandmother's name on Dad's Side...Mary Hunt. As I walked into the celestial room and sat down I began to cry because I was so overwhelmed with a sense of joy, comfort, warmth and peace and I can't help but feel that she accepted the ordinance that I had done for her! I've never felt that way...at least in that degree when I've taken other family names through! It was an experience I will forever treasure!!! :)

I'm happy to report that Jori will be getting baptized this upcoming Sunday Morning and then confirmed in Sacrament meeting after! She is so excited for it and I am too! Scott is doing sooooo well! He quit drinking coffee on Tuesday and as far as we know hasn't had any sense! 

We got to do a lot of service this week...Harvesting the Steeles garden...it reminded me of home and we even were able to take their corn-stalks and make decorations for our house!

We were able to see Hannah (an investigator that we've been working with for a while) this week finally and she brought up that she needs to be reading from the Book of Mormon more, and to pray. We were so happy that the spirit was able to help her realize what she needed to be doing to get an answer before we even had to tell/invite her!

We've been focusing a-lot on finding and as we were praying to know what to do to find more people to teach we had the thought to start up a scripture study class, so that is exactly what we are going to do! We've made flyers and just need to make copies now! We are going to start on the 17th! We hope it goes well! 

I know that the gospel of Jesus Christ is true! I know that the Book of Mormon is true and I have that book, and prayer to thank for the relationship that I have with God today! I know that Heavenly Father hears and answers our prayers! I know that He is in the details of our lives...even when we don't recognize it! There are no coincidences! I know that there is strength that comes through the Atonement of Jesus Christ! I love my Savior and I will do all that I can to serve Him, even though I know I fall short! 

I love you all! Have a wonderful week!
Hagoonee!
Love,
Sister Brown
